It's cervical mucus.  Becuase of the changes in your cervix and the influx of hormones, you cervix can produce a higher than normal volume of mucus.  As long as it's creamy and white colored it's normal.  If you notice it becomes discolored or is streaked with pink/red/brown or is accompanied by a foul odor, see your doctor right away.

I am 8.5 months now and it has gotten so much worse since about month 7.  I now have to change my liner several times a day.  I was so concered I even had it tested for amniotic fluid, but it's just normal pregnancy stuff.  Fun fun =)

This is normal pregnancy discharge - It will increase as you progress in your pregnancy -you will only need to worry if it goes yellow or green and starts to smell funny, this might mean you have an infection.  You can use a liner if it becomes too much and you wnat to feel fresher.
